Abstract

A stylus and a touch interactive device is provided. The stylus includes a pen holder, a cover plate, and a circuit control assembly. The pen holder includes a pen head, a pen wall, and an accommodating space. A groove is defined in the pen wall and communicates with the accommodating space. The pen head is arranged at one end of the pen holder. The cover plate is arranged corresponding to the groove and covers the groove. The circuit control assembly is received in the accommodating space. The circuit control assembly includes a mainboard and a touch sensing module connected to the mainboard. The touch sensing module is attached to the pen wall or a first inner wall of the cover plate to form a touch sensing area. The touch sensing module is used to receive and sense at least one touch command of fingers in the touch sensing area.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A stylus, manipulated by fingers of one hand, wherein the stylus comprises:
 a pen holder comprising a pen head, a pen wall, a trench, and an accommodating space, wherein a groove is defined in the pen wall and communicates with the accommodating space, and the pen head is arranged at one end of the pen holder; 
 a cover plate disposed corresponding to the groove and covering the groove; and 
 a circuit control assembly accommodated in the accommodating space, wherein the circuit control assembly comprises a mainboard and a touch sensing module connected to the mainboard, the touch sensing module is attached to the pen wall or a first inner wall of the cover plate to form a touch sensing area, the touch sensing module is correspondingly disposed in the trench and is attached to a second inner wall of the trench, and a thickness of the second inner wall is less than a thickness of the first inner wall, and the touch sensing module is configured to receive and sense at least one touch command of one or more of the fingers in the touch sensing area. 
 
     
     
       2. The stylus according to  claim 1 , wherein the touch sensing module comprises a touch chip, a touch conductive film, and a flexible circuit board, and the touch chip is electrically connected to the touch conductive film and is further connected to the mainboard through the flexible circuit board. 
     
     
       3. The stylus according to  claim 2 , wherein one end of the flexible circuit board of the touch sensing module further comprises a connector, the mainboard comprises a socket, and the connector is electrically connected to the socket. 
     
     
       4. The stylus according to  claim 1 , wherein the pen head comprises a pen core and a positioning block for fixing the pen core. 
     
     
       5. A touch interactive device, comprising:
 a stylus, manipulated by fingers of one hand, wherein the stylus comprises:
 a pen holder comprising a pen head, a pen wall, a trench, and an accommodating space, wherein a groove is defined in the pen wall and communicates with the accommodating space, and the pen head is arranged at one end of the pen holder; 
 a cover plate disposed corresponding to the groove and covering the groove; 
 a circuit control assembly accommodated in the accommodating space, wherein the circuit control assembly comprises a mainboard and a touch sensing module connected to the mainboard, the touch sensing module is attached to the pen wall or a first inner wall of the cover plate to form a touch sensing area, the touch sensing module is correspondingly disposed in the trench and is attached to a second inner wall of the trench, and a thickness of the second inner wall is less than a thickness of the first inner wall, and the touch sensing module is configured to receive and sense at least one touch command of one or more of the fingers in the touch sensing area; and 
 
 an electronic device receiving the at least one touch command and executes at least one interactive operation corresponding to the at least one touch command. 
 
     
     
       6. The touch interactive device according to  claim 5 , wherein the at least one touch command comprises one or a combination of finger sliding, finger rotating, or finger tapping once or more times in the touch sensing area, and the at least one interactive operation comprises one or a combination of moving a cursor, selecting an object, moving an object, or positioning an object. 
     
     
       7. The touch interactive device according to  claim 5 , wherein a size of the touch sensing area is same as an area of the touch sensing module. 
     
     
       8. The touch interactive device according to  claim 5 , wherein the electronic device further comprises a pen slot for receiving the stylus.
